Hydrophilic Coatings Market Information: by Substrate (polymers, glass & ceramics, metals, nanoparticles, and others), Application (medical devices & equipment, automotive, marine, optical, and others), and Region- Forecast till 2023

Hydrophilic coatings reduce surface friction and enhance lubricity. This coating acts like a microscopic sponge and water provides excellent low friction characteristics as long as the coating remains wet.

The global hydrophilic coatings market is primarily driven by the increasing demand for controlled lubricity of medical devices surface. Hydrophilic coatings can be used in guidewires, catheters, and cannulas and reduce the occurrences of inflammation and damage caused by these devices when used on a patient.

These coatings react with water and form a hydrogel material, which reduces insertion force and avoids possible puncture damage and makes it suitable for biological interactions.

They exhibit antimicrobial properties and are biocompatible in nature thus preventing any chances of infections. The use of hydrophilic coatings as an anti-fog agent in automotive parts such as windshields and rear-view mirrors is likely to fuel the market growth further. These coatings are also used in ophthalmology for placing intraocular lenses (IOLs) devices to reduce the catastrophic bursting incidences and incision size.

They are also used in optical devices such as camera windows, outdoor surveillance, and others. The demand for these coatings is rising in the marine industry as they reduce the kinematic friction between the coated boats and water surfaces. However, stringent regulation from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for 510K Clearance is likely to challenge the market growth.

Nevertheless, the opportunities and development trends that can offer better growth are observed in the market include the drug delivery and biological interactions of hydrophilic coatings. In October 2016, Surmodics, Inc. announced the launch of a single coat formulation Serene Solutions, which meets the challenge of achieving the right balance of lubricity and durability of intravascular products. Other instance of the development of the market is the merger of AdvanSource Biomaterials Corp. with Medibrane, Ltd. in January 2017.
